## Specifications

- Capacity : 60 ml

## Description

Nikwax Waterproofing Wax for Leather cream **effectively waterproofs your leather footwear.**

It is recommended for waterproofing footwear with Gore-Tex and eVent membranes.

Your footwear can let water in when dirty, or its waterproofing may deteriorate over time. It therefore needs a suitable waterproofer to maintain its performance.

Nikwax Waterproofing Wax for Leather™ cream **can be applied to wet or dry leather**, providing immediate durable water repellent (DWR) treatment while maintaining breathability.

**Directions for use:**

*For excellent results, clean your items first.*

- Shake well before use.
- Spread the wax onto clean wet or dry leather using the sponge applicator, paying particular attention to seams.
- Wipe off excess with a cloth and buff to a shine.

Note: leather may darken. Test on a hidden area first. Waterproofing Wax for Leather™ changes the appearance of nubuck, giving it a waxed finish.

Firstly, they keep our feet dry in wet conditions, and secondly, they prevent injury by protecting our feet and supporting our ankles. Both of these functions are

New boots like this one come with a factory-applied water-repellent coating, but that doesn't last forever. So before long, you'll have to restore the proofing and then maintain it after

These old boots, which I've been using for about six years, I haven't treated them for a very long time, so they've got very poor repellency. If water penetrates the leather, it can obviously seep all the way through to your feet. But wet leather

The other thing about wet leather is that it's much softer than dry leather, making it far less effective at

Nikwax Waterproofing Wax for Leather is easy to apply and works immediately, allowing you to treat your boots at any time, even last minute, just before you go

First, wash off dirt with water or use a soap-based cleaner like Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel. You don't need to wait for your boots to dry before applying the product. Just shake the tube well and get stuck

Nikwax products don't contain fluorocarbon chemicals or harmful solvents, so feel free to use your fingers to rub it in. The water-based formulation means the proofing concentrates in areas where your boots leak the most.

Waterproofing Wax is designed not to over-soften your leather. If you do need softening, for example to break in new boots, try Nikwax Conditioner for

Once treated, your boots will be immediately water-repellent, keeping your feet dry, comfortable and protected, whatever the conditions.

## A question about this product?

**Is it suitable for my footwear?**

This Waterproofing Wax cream is made for wet or dry leather footwear and suits models with Gore-Tex or eVent membranes while maintaining breathability. Leather may darken slightly and nubuck may develop a waxed finish, so it is worth testing on a hidden area. The pot holds 60 mL. What type of leather is your footwear made from?
